Is it possible for two pieces of the same metal to have different recrystallization temperatures? Is it possible for recrystallization to take place in some regions of a part before it does in other regions of the same part? Explain

Answer:

Explained

Step-by-step explanation:

Two pieces of the same metal can have different recrystallization temperatures if the pieces have been cold worked to different amounts. The piece of work cold worked to greater extend will have more internal energy to drive the recrystalline process and lower recrystallization temperature.

Yes, its possible that recrystallization to take place in some regions of a part before it does in other regions of the same part if the work has been unevenly strained or if the part have different thickness at different sections.
